When am I supposed to pay the bills to keep the util down? Do I PIF once it posts to the account that I see online? Or once I get the statement, I just pay what is on that statement? I'm confused....lol I want to keep the util down. My score is coming up and we've recently got a few cards and I want to do the best I can.
Thanks for your help!
Alright Schoolbuskid, don't even think about reporting date. The important dates are closing date and due date. PIF all the amount you charges as much as you can by no later than a day before closing date. And PIF the statement balance before the due date if there is any. Good Luck to you too!

Which i plan to do! Good Luck!
